Yes...long distance relationships can work. If both of you are committed and faithful to each other, then there shouldn't be a problem. The only disadvantage of long distance relationships is that you can physically be with that person very often..especially depending on how far apart you live.

My last relationship was long-distance. It was the first long-distance relationship I had ever been in...and now I'm heartbroken from it. She wasn't unfaithful to me, but she did leave me.

But bottom line---it takes both of you to make it work...and it CAN work.

My husband and I were in a long distance relationship for a year before I moved to London. It was really hard but we were both extremely commited to the relationship. If you don't have that, it's impossible to make it work.

My stbx and I had a long distance relationship. We made it work, but I realize now that we lost a lot from it. We didn't have that day-to-day connection that might have shown me things about him that I'm seeing now.

Because we were so happy to see each other, things got swept under the carpet.

I'm not sure in retrospect that I would do one again. But never say never. Just throwing out my cautionary tale for whatever it's worth.

The only thing a long distance relationship got me was the fucking misery I am in now, so I would advise against it. If its worth it to be together, then someone should move. If you stay in a long distance relationship, no one is taking a risk, and if you don't take a risk, what makes it worth it?

I had one after university. We both spent alot of money on gas, driving all weekend and finally decided to go our separate ways. My thought is you can make along distance thing work if you are already in a committed relationship. Why take the additional risk unless one of you is realistically willing to pick up and move.

I just wanted to give input regarding the newsfeed, if it has not already been said by someone else:The posts in the newsfeed give no information about which support group they were posted in or if they are a journal post by a friend. I have tried to solve the confusion for myself by limiting myself to only two groups, but it doesn't really help. (Further, if you go into a post, the OP's avatar...

A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
